    As scary as the lockdown was, it was an interesting year of protests for BLM and labor movements. Once everyone had a lot of time on their hands, they started to take action on import topics.

    Now I feel like most people are back to the grind, and as a whole we don’t have the time to quickly make changes we want to see

      I fucking loved the lockdown. Masks? No more faking facial expressions. Social Distancing? I didn’t have to pretend to care about people or make small talk. “Working” from home? So simple and I got to spend a year home with my new baby.

      It was glorious and I miss it.

        A plot point in Brave New World, although as dystopias go it’s a surprisingly kind one
